    Bolshevism as such

    I'm calling it Bolshevism. You can refer to it as Stalinism, if you prefer. I don't, because it's not limited to Stalin. Communism as an ideology in general is not what the thread is about, although I'm not very fond of that either, if you care to know.

    Bolshevism as such

    The thing that has been bugging me for a while has been a simultaneous use of variations of "Nazi" and "Hitler" as metaphors for the worst thing/person imaginable and total ignorance, disinterest or even idealization of communist Bolshevism. Even here, in this very community there was this guy...

    Little help on carbon dating

    Thank you, kind people. I'll read up the links provided over the weekend. Geology. It's a smallish class called "vital resources of modern civilizations" that will give me the little bit of credits that I will need to get my diploma. To be fair the class is pretty okay. And the motivation the...

    Little help on carbon dating

    Hello everyone, One of my professors is convinced that carbon dating is "inaccurate in 90 cases out of 100", if you want the context I can give it to you, but right now I'll cut to the chase - I've seen something on this forum a few years ago saying that there is some pseudoscience regarding...

    Lab equipment

    Right, if somebody cares about this, all that I could gather was that you should check their costumer service. If they replace your stuff if it doesn't work or breaks soon, help you fix it and else, they care about the quality.

    Lab equipment

    Greetings! This might be a little silly, but what's the quality control system for the lab equipment? Marine microbiology in my case. What I mean is that if I (as say, a university) am buying the equipment, and I want some good equipment, why would I not go for the cheaper options that don't...

    Horoscope, Zodiac, whatever it's called.

    First off, this is just me mostly ranting and bitching, so if you think you have something better to do, by all means go ahead. Now that we have that out of the way, as the titles indicates I want to talk just a bit about horoscopes, which I have to grown to have even more lately. Don't how is...

    Napoleon Total War.

    couldn't have said it better. I did few missions of Shogun but damn, you need a really powerful computer for it. I have a decent comp and it took forever to load before I set graphics close to minimum, and it crushed several times. from few things that I have seen there is a heavy focus on...

    Osama Bin Laden killed

    oh you can be sure that hes dead. There is a chance he didn't die just now but hes dead. After all, they can't afford to take a risk of him popping out on the screen again. By the way did they really throw his body into the sea? what the hell?

    Turkey

    I don't know, pretty much all the Turks I've met didn't leave a very good impression.

    Osama Bin Laden killed

    get ready for conspiracies. I am glad he is dead, not because I wanted it badly but rather "we can't find that ONE GUY!!!" thing is over.

    The Royal Wedding

    Brain surgeon is crap, Mitchell and Webb do have some hilarious sketches, but my absolute favorite is "Would I Lie To You" with David Mitchell and Lee Mack, I just die laughing. I just love that it's spontaneous, they don't try to be funny, they just find themselves talking about weird...

    The Matrix

    I thought sequels to be horrific but after watching it again lately I thought that they were not that bad actually, sure it's just "omg karate!!" at places and a bit too much of it but you still get some interesting bits (like the french guy). of course the first part was the best. Probably the...

    The day The Young Turks became uncool

    as much as option B sounds very tempting I think I'll elaborate. I feel uncomfortable when I see little girls pretending to breastfeed their dolls with plastic things attached to them, maybe without them too. I would also feel uncomfortable if I saw somebody shit, even though I know it's...

    The day The Young Turks became uncool

    It did make me feel uncomfortable. Did your children ever pretend to breastfeed their dolls? if yes, why do they need plastic nipples if they can play without them anyway; If no, then they didn't think of it in the first place. bottom line is that I just don't like it because it looks awkward...
